祈求引导和赦免

大卫的诗。

25 耶和华啊,我的心仰望你。
我的上帝啊,我信靠你,
求你不要叫我蒙羞,
不要让我的仇敌胜过我。
信靠你的必不羞愧,
背信弃义者必蒙羞。
耶和华啊,
求你指引我走你的路,
教导我行你的道。
求你以你的真理引领我,
教导我,因为你是拯救我的上帝,
我日夜仰望你。
耶和华啊,
求你顾念你亘古以来常施的怜悯和慈爱,
求你饶恕我年轻时的罪恶和过犯,
以你的恩惠和慈爱待我。
耶和华良善公正,
祂教导罪人走正路,
指引谦卑人追求公义,
教导他们行祂的道。
10 遵守祂的约和法度的人,
耶和华以慈爱和信实相待。
11 耶和华啊,我罪恶深重,
求你为了自己的名而赦免我。
12 凡敬畏耶和华的人,
耶和华必指示他当走的路。
13 他必享福,
他的后代必承受土地。
14 耶和华与敬畏祂的人为友,
使他们认识祂的约。
15 我常常仰望耶和华,
因为唯有祂能救我脱离网罗。

16 耶和华啊,我孤苦零丁,
求你眷顾我,恩待我。
17 我心中充满愁烦,
求你救我脱离患难。
18 求你体恤我的忧伤和痛苦,
赦免我的罪恶。
19 看啊,我的仇敌众多,
他们都痛恨我。
20 求你保护、搭救我的性命,
别让我蒙羞,因为我投靠你。
21 求你以诚实和正义护卫我,
因为我仰望你。
22 上帝啊,
求你救赎以色列脱离一切困境。

25 Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths.

Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O Lord.

Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

10 All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12 What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14 The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

15 Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.

17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

Psalm 25[a]

Of David.

In you, Lord my God,
    I put my trust.(A)

I trust in you;(B)
    do not let me be put to shame,
    nor let my enemies triumph over me.
No one who hopes in you
    will ever be put to shame,(C)
but shame will come on those
    who are treacherous(D) without cause.

Show me your ways, Lord,
    teach me your paths.(E)
Guide me in your truth(F) and teach me,
    for you are God my Savior,(G)
    and my hope is in you(H) all day long.
Remember, Lord, your great mercy and love,(I)
    for they are from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth(J)
    and my rebellious ways;(K)
according to your love(L) remember me,
    for you, Lord, are good.(M)

Good and upright(N) is the Lord;
    therefore he instructs(O) sinners in his ways.
He guides(P) the humble in what is right
    and teaches them(Q) his way.
10 All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful(R)
    toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.(S)
11 For the sake of your name,(T) Lord,
    forgive(U) my iniquity,(V) though it is great.

12 Who, then, are those who fear the Lord?(W)
    He will instruct them in the ways(X) they should choose.[b]
13 They will spend their days in prosperity,(Y)
    and their descendants will inherit the land.(Z)
14 The Lord confides(AA) in those who fear him;
    he makes his covenant known(AB) to them.
15 My eyes are ever on the Lord,(AC)
    for only he will release my feet from the snare.(AD)

16 Turn to me(AE) and be gracious to me,(AF)
    for I am lonely(AG) and afflicted.
17 Relieve the troubles(AH) of my heart
    and free me from my anguish.(AI)
18 Look on my affliction(AJ) and my distress(AK)
    and take away all my sins.(AL)
19 See how numerous are my enemies(AM)
    and how fiercely they hate me!(AN)

20 Guard my life(AO) and rescue me;(AP)
    do not let me be put to shame,(AQ)
    for I take refuge(AR) in you.
21 May integrity(AS) and uprightness(AT) protect me,
    because my hope, Lord,[c] is in you.(AU)

22 Deliver Israel,(AV) O God,
    from all their troubles!
